Need to clarification on nrf http server example

[dev_nxp]

I’m working with the nRF7002 DK and following the guide for the HTTP server sample here: HTTP Server Example. The build process is successful, but when I flash the device, I see this in the terminal:

Welcome to minicom 2.9

OPTIONS: I18n
Port /dev/ttyACM1, 12:22:25

Press CTRL-A Z for help on special keys

*** Booting nRF Connect SDK v3.1.0-6c6e5b32496e ***
*** Using Zephyr OS v4.1.99-1612683d4010 ***
[00:00:00.314,208] <inf> http_server: HTTP Server sample started
[00:00:00.314,270] <inf> http_server: Network interface brought up

and after nothing happens.

What’s the difference between the Zephyr HTTP server and the nRF HTTP server? examples And how do I configure the Wi-Fi credentials for the device?

Hello,

Sorry, I was out of the office yesterday, which caused the delay in responding to this issue.

From the shared logs, it looks like Wi-Fi is not connected, although the sample you flashed is working. I believe this is because the Wi-Fi credentials have not been configured. This is mentioned in the documentation for the sample. Please also refer to the Wi-Fi credential library.

The difference between the Zephyr HTTP sample and the Nordic sample is that our SDK sample is tailored for Nordic boards and includes overlays for running on our boards. The Zephyr sample, on the other hand, is a more generic example showcasing the HTTP server library.

Kind regards,
Abhijith

Thanks! I managed to get the Wi-Fi connectivity working successfully. However, I'm now trying to send data over HTTP with TLS-PSK, but I'm encountering an error."
